World of Tanks is a multiplayer action-shooter and strategy battle game in which you control your own armored vehicle and take part in epic World War II tank battles.
While playing World of Tanks you can choose from an immense library of more than 200 historically accurate armored vehicles from countries all over the world such as the Soviet Union, German, U.S.A, France, U.K., China, and Japan.
One the game’s best features is its comprehensive upgrade system that enables you to change, upgrade, or swap parts between your armored vehicles for developing the exact tank that fits your battle style.
Another worth mentioning feature is the fact that World of Tanks is developed in such a way that you will always be matched with players who are at comparable levels of skill with you and drive comparable tanks as your own.
World of Tanks couldn’t have been so great without offering you the possibility to choose the style of tanks and battles; for example, in the middle of the battle, you can choose to outmaneuver your opponents using a lightweight tank at the expense of armor protection.
Furthermore, you can choose an all-purpose medium tank that can be best described as being a Jack of all trades but master of none, use the extreme firepower of heavy tanks at the expense of speed, or you can become a long range sniper by using howitzers.
Despite the fact that World of Tanks’s menu can be a bit intimidating at first, the game is played in a very natural and simple manner with the help of the WASD keys for moving the tank around, and the mouse to aim and shoot.
Another interesting fact that surely contributes to World of Tanks' popularity is the fact that two battles will never turn out the same way and that there are many complex factors to be taken into consideration like.
Your vehicle’s weaknesses, together with skill and strategy play big roles in World of Tanks because of its realistic style in which it deals with projectiles, and, thus, a good position and a correct angle of shooting, as well as neatly executed avoiding maneuvers will pay off by increasing your chances of not being defeated.
All in all, World of Tanks is an engaging and thrilling multiplayer game, with great graphics, absorbing soundscape, easy to get into, yet complex gameplay, lots of vehicles and even more upgrade options.
Being such a complex and content filled game, World of Tanks is hard to be described in words, and, thus, our recommendation is that you just give it a shot to make up your own impression of it.

During this summer, I realized that Apple’s naming of versions seems a tad odd…
We were sitting around a table in the beautiful Swedish archipelago, having a drink and chatting a little. Big men talk about big guns, right? So, we were discussing different German tank models. Not being just a man, but a computer geek as well, it hit me that the name of German tanks are the same as the name of OS X versions.
When I got back online, I did a quick search, and Internet being what it is, naturally I hadn’t been the only one thinking about it. In German armored vehicles and Apple Mac OS X all these are listed, but please allow me to present a short list:
I’m really not sure where all this comes from, and it might just be coincidence – trust me, I’m not implying that Apple is some kind of Neo-Nazi movement in disguise (thinking about when especially the Tiger tank was mostly active). And sure, I can see why you would like to name something after great mighty cats.
But, what I really think, is that if you’re going to name a product line of any kind, don’t you just stop a moment to think, to contemplate:
a) Have anyone else used this naming convention?
b) Could there be any kind of negative connection?
Maybe my guess for the next iPhone to be named iPhone 3G SS isn’t so far off after all… 😉
